feat(mcp): restore MCP system with native log.h

- MCP 3.3K LOC: McpSystem 1899 + McpHandler 1029 + McpScreensaver + 2 apps
- Uses native tactility/log.h TAG macros, no old Logger.h
- DisplaySettings McpScreen enum, WebServer coexistence (MCP enabled starts HTTP)
- DisplayIdle: startMcpScreensaver + isDeviceCharging + lock inversion fix 3629ffef
- LVGL 512K PSRAM cache retained from previous perf patch
- Audio kept upstream es8311-module per note we might not need custom
